In terms of mortality and morbidity and disability burns are emerging as a major child health problem in Mongolia. This trend is similar to many other developing and low incoming countries. To develop effective burn prevention programmes, information on its prevalence and etiology are necessary. To describe the epidemiology of child burns in UB, identify the trends of burn occurrence, the vulnerable population and etiology. Descriptive statistic and one-way analysis of variance were employed. The study was carried out to analyze the prevalence, mortality and current etiology of pediatrics burns in Ulaanbaatar during 10 years (2004-2013). The overall incidence rates of death were 26.3 per 100000 person-years. The male-to-female ration of incidence rate for children younger than 5 years was 1.1. There was also significantcorrelation between age groups and aetiology of burns.(P<0.0001). Analyses showed that younger children were more vulnerable to scald injury. The etiological subgroups of scalding were scalding with hot drinks/food and scalding with hot water meant for household. Flame was the most common etiology of burn for children up of 5 years and almost all other age groups.

Acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome among children are clinical entities of multifactorial origin requiring intensive care. Pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome is a devastating lung condition with high mortality being the end result of a wide variety of inciting events. The purpose of this article is to review recent evidence for the epidemiology, clinical signs, diagnosis and treatment of the acute respiratory distress syndrome in chidlren.

Stigmatization and discrimination against mental patients and their family members due to typical community misunderstanding about mental diseases are commonly occurred among population. Particularly, discrimination against alcoholic patients and stigmatization against theirfamily members are most common among Mongolian people, because prevalence of alcohol dependence problems is increased 2 times more in last decades. Our aim was to define current situation of stigmatization and discrimination against alcoholic patients. This survey has been conducted among total 90 inpatients with alcoholic problem, are have staying in National Center for Mental Health and Narcology Center. We conducted the study by descriptive and crossectional design.Totally 90 alcohol patients, aged 19-61 years were participated in our survey. 67 (74.4%) of them were male and 23(25.5%) were female and average age was 40.1±1.1. Level of job’s discriminationwas growingrelated to increasing the level of alcohol consumption (p<0.0016)and level of family’s stigma was growing related to increasing the level of alcohol dependence (p<0.0001). Most of patients (n=29), who are divorced from their couples were answering that main reason of their divorcing was alcohol problem and bad interfamily relationship.Furthermore, stigmatization and discrimination increasing due to increasing level of alcohol consumption (p<0.0001).Most of participants (60%; n=54) are answered, that stigma and discrimination against them were occurring from their family.
